Finger stick. I can do a finger stick. Testing my red blood cell something. 38.4. That sounds good. Oh. Not good. Wait. I can't give?? Another finger stick. What will change my hematocrit (what even is that) in two minutes? Oh.

•

Oh. You stuck the other hand, that was fast. I didn't even realize. Waiting. Waiting. Ok. 39. Is that enough? Ok. Good.

•

Hi Nadeem. I'm Natalie. Yes. I've given blood but not in a while. Shh. Don't talk too much. He doesn't care. Ok. Oh. Look we are starting. Blood pressure cuff as tourniquet. Why did I just say that we have better tourniquets? Ugh. Almost forgot - Quick snapchat to make the experience real.

Smoothest stick ever. Well done Nadeem.

•

Wee!! Here it goes. It's so pretty. I feel a little vampire. Oh wait, maybe don't lean over like that. That's a good head rush.

•

Almost done? That was fast. I think telling someone they have good blood flow is a compliment. At least in this case.

Don't fall. Don't fall. Step. Step. I feel totally normal or not maybe a little woozy just have to make it to the bench up there and don't bump into that guy giving blood looks a little freaky breathe breathe.

•

Ok. Sitting is good. Juice is good.

•

Bloodmobile would be a good name for a vampire moving company. Or band. Very goth. Or something.

•

Might have to keep rolling my sleeves up to casually show off the purple tape.

Almost forgot to snapchat. Would it be real without a snap and a list?
